Pretty amazing. Excellent for eat-in or take out. Super friendly staff.
The Arugula Pizza and Tortellini a la Strada are complete stand-outs here. Living in New Jersey my whole life, I've become pretty picky with pizza and the Arugula Pizza fits the bill. It comes really, really leafy with arugula, tomatoes, mozzarella, and parm- a delicious combo. Expect some of these ingredients to fall off while you're eating, but hey free mini-salad! The Tortellini – just thinking about it makes me want some more. The pasta came perfectly al dente filled with yummy cheese in a light creamy sop-worthy tomato sauce with a little basil and a good amount of garlic bread. My 1-year old totally enjoyed it too.
Other noteworthy mentions: the Lexy Salad- a perfectly refreshing mix of greens, sectioned oranges, strawberries, goat cheese, and pecans, with citrus-based dressing on the side. It looks beautiful and has flavors to match while the Chicken Parm sandwich completely delivers with really nice bread- crusty on the outside, soft on the inside, with breaded chicken cutlet in a rich tomato sauce and topped with melted mozzarella. Did I make you hungry? Well, me too.
Good pizza!
My friend and I ordered a medium 1/2 4 cheese and 1/2 mushroom pie, and a side of garlic bread with cheese, for delivery on a Friday night. Delivery was quick and accurate, the bill came to about $21. The garlic bread was delicious, and certainly didn't skimp on the cheese! When you're craving cheesy greasy goodness, you don't want the restaurant to moderate your gorging!
The pizza was also really good (both parts), although I found the crust part to be a bit too wide. The dog didn't mind our cast offs, but even she couldn't eat all the crust. The 4 cheese pizza was decadent, with the ricotta and mozzarella squirting out with each bite. The mushroom slices were quite good as well. No complaints!
This is pizza place with a restaurant in the back. My experience was in the restaurant. Came in on a weeknight so it was not really crowded. The room looks cozy but the chairs were really uncomfortable.
A warm bread basket was brought to the table. In my opinion the bread was the best part of the meal.
The waiter came to the table and we asked to give us a few more minutes as we weren't ready to order yet. He looked pretty annoyed at that.
When he came back, I asked a question about a chicken dish and his response was pretty lame saying "it's good." No explanation of the dish and no suggestions. I like when I go to a restaurant and the server has knowledge of the food.
A pretty undesirable side salad was brought out that had brown lettuce. Big turnoff.
I settled on the chicken scarpariello for dinner. The description said it was chicken pieces with garlic, oregano and mushrooms. When it came out it was two chicken breast halves drowned in some kind of bland sause with mushrooms. I don't know where the garlic and oregano were, but they were totally absent. It came over linguine pasta which was really really overcooked.
My husband had chicken marsala. It too was very bland and had no taste.
I think there are a lot of other estaurants in the area that I would like to try.
The great, service. The good, food. Tried this place out after seeing other reviews. Restaurant is in back of pizzeria. Location is central Milburn. Bread was good and loved the fact they give you a bowl of grated parm vs standing over me grinding (I hate that). Server was extremely accommodating and food was good. Will possibly be back for sit down as service was so good. Will definitely come back to try the pizza.
I've been living here for 16 years and La Strada consistently delivers on good classic NY pizza slices. Toppings of all kinds and a very casual seating area in the front. Sandwiches and salads are available as well. In the back is a full service restaurant which I have also patronized and the entrees are good not spectacular but it is convenient, casual, and family friendly. My favorite place to grab a slice in town and I have never been dissatisfied with their slices. Parking in back is available.
Hometown classic. Pizza by the slice before your movie in the front, classy sitting in the back, and outdoor patio seating in the summer's without a street view.
Average entree will run you about $15. BYOB

Food is always tasty and the garlic bread is mouthwatering.
I was a little disturbed that my compatriots decided to wait for outdoor seating, but I see their point that no where else in Millburn can you sit outside without sitting on the sidewalk. Point taken.
Keeping my three stars. Love the ambiance at their outdoor patio. Great way to enjoy our bottle of cab. Food is just average here. We ordered pasta – mushroom paroadelle and the spinach fettuccini. Portion is huge but flavor is not there. We still enjoyed our night out – prompt and cordial service. Right by the muni parking lot so quite convenient as well.
Simple. The best pizza in Millburn.
